We don't just pull information out of thin air. Every fact in our database has a source—and we're happy to tell you exactly which one.
Почему важно публиковать источники
Портал о реальном месте несёт особую ответственность за точность. Читатель едет в ресторан по нашему адресу. Партнёр принимает решение об офисе на основании наших данных. Инвестор изучает рынок по нашей аналитике. Если мы ошибёмся — это реальные последствия.
Primary source. Information on the official website or a verified social media account is considered the most reliable. That is where we get the address, phone number, hours of operation, and description when adding a business for the first time.
An additional check, especially for venues with an international audience. Google Maps often features recent photos from visitors and up-to-date reviews—this helps ensure that the venue is currently open.
One of the most accurate directories of organizations in Russia. It is especially useful for verifying companies' registered addresses and phone numbers, as well as for entities without their own websites.
If there are discrepancies between sources or when adding a new venue, we call or email them directly. This takes more time, but yields the most accurate results. This is especially critical for venues offering high-cost services: healthcare, real estate, and event venues.
Real-time data on current rates and offers comes directly from property owners and agencies listed on the portal. This is a live market, not archived data.
We use this to monitor market price and rent levels—as a benchmark for verifying the accuracy of data submitted by our partners. We do not automatically import data from major aggregators; we only use it to verify price ranges.
We use Rosreestr’s open data to verify information on property sizes, cadastral characteristics, and owner details—where such information is publicly available.
Russia's leading business publication. Features articles on the MMDC real estate market, new projects, investors, and price trends. We use it as our primary source of facts when preparing analytical reports.
One of Russia's oldest business publications. Its coverage of major real estate deals in the City, corporate relocations, and institutional investors is particularly useful.
We use this to verify information about significant transactions, changes in tower ownership, and development projects in the Moscow International Business Center and surrounding areas.
For news about construction, infrastructure changes, and new high-rises, please contact the press offices directly. This is the only reliable source for official information about the neighborhood’s development.
Information on development plans, transportation changes, and building permits is sourced from official city government sources. Data on the metro and transportation accessibility is sourced from publicly available materials from the Moscow Metro and the Department of Urban Development.
We obtain information on tower heights, the number of floors, architectural features, and construction history from the official websites of the complexes and developers. We verify this data using multiple sources, as there are many incorrect figures online.
For complex technical specifications and historical data on tower design, we refer to professional architectural publications and academic sources.
Данные публикуются только тогда, когда они подтверждены минимум двумя независимыми источниками.
Если источники расходятся — мы звоним напрямую или откладываем публикацию до прояснения.
Исключение: официальный сайт самого объекта считается достаточным источником для базовых данных (адрес, телефон, режим работы) — при условии, что сайт явно актуален.
«Источник — это не бюрократия. Это уважение к читателю, который доверяет нам своё время и решения.»
